Today the weather outside was beautiful in the low 70's and for some reason when I got home from therapy I got it in my head that I was going to go for a walk. So I got my tennis shoes on and thought well I'm just going to go around my apartment complex since I haven't walked in ages or done any exercise of any kind but nooooooo I had to decide to go through the neighborhood across the street from me and I ended up walking for about a mile and half.
My legs feel like rubber and I am very tired but I feel like I accomplished something and I am very proud of myself for keeping putting one foot in front of the other. I kept saying I'm going to go to Walnut Street if it kills me. My goal was to get to Walnut Street and turn around and come home. I'm not sure what the significance of getting to Walnut Street held but for some reason I had to get there and back. I got triggered once on my walk because there was some dogs that came rushing out at me barking because they were defending their territory but it didn't last long and I was able to talk my way out the panic attack but other than that the walk was pleasant and I will do it again. Next time I won't push myself as hard and will take another route so I don't have to encounter the dogs. Jan

Go Jbug go! I grew up on a Walnut Street - you must have been thinking of me, even if my Walnut Street isn't in your state!
It feels so good, doesn't it?

That first step is always the hardest. It is amazing how just walking boost your self esteem as well as your metabolism. I am so glad you have started toward your goal.       kebs
